INSPECTION
1.Check the bushing for wear and deterioration.
2. Check the stabilizer bar for bending or breakage.
3. Check the ball joint for rotating torque.
(1) If there is a crack in the dust cover, replace it and add grease.
(2) Move the stabilizer link ball joint stud several times in a circular motion.
(3) Mount the self - locking nut on the ball joint, and then measure the ball joint rotating torque.
Standard value :
0.5 ~ 2.5 Nm (5 ~ 25 kgf., 0.36 ~ 1.81 lb - ft)
